    No configuration makes it easy to set up to add more ethernet ports if you have a lot of wired devices but maybe only 4 ports on modem or original router.

    Linksys is the leader in the industry because they build a product that works. No special parts, no complicated process, just plug it in and it works.

    If you're looking for a small switch to branch out a hair and don't have another port - much easier than running another cable.

    Has worked well since installation and as it was replacing a previous unit that has operated for many years, I hope this one will perform equally well.
